Realizing Reality

Sometimes you don't realize how much you love people until they're gone.


Sometimes you don't realize how much you appreciate someone until you don't see them anymore.


Sometimes you don't realize how much you care about someone until you can't talk to them anymore.


Sometimes you don't realize how close you are to someone until they get busy and aren't around as much.


Sometimes you don't realize how much you still care about someone until they re-enter your life.


Sometimes you don't realize how much you like your job until it's over.


Sometimes you don't realize how near the end/beginning is until you count the days.


Sometimes you don't realize how much you like someone until they break your heart.


Sometimes you don't realize how cautious you're being until someone slips right through your fingers.


Sometimes you don't realize how carefree you're being until you get hurt.


Sometimes you don't realize how much someone affects you until their influence is gone.


Sometimes you don't realize you're being irrational until reality slaps you in the face.


Sometimes you think you can handle more until you get hit with the unexpected.


Sometimes, you don't realize things about life and the people in it until after it's over.  And no matter how hard you try, or how reasonable you think you're being, you just can't realize some things until after the fact.  And that's just part of life and the growing up process.
